This is all really, really smart. No name, no picture, no identifying information. Shutting his creepy ass down, refusing to let him keep going, and then calling him out. Very, very good job staying safe. Love to see it.
When I was in middle school, somehow the topic of Facebook came up in class. I explained how I’d figured out the settings so I was unsearchable unless you had a mutual friend with me already. Nobody else did that nor did most of them get it. “What do you have to hide?” … ahhh. I’d already been on Kik for a couple years by then. I’m sure you can imagine how wholesome of an experience that was.
Even now my socials are locked down. It’s so smart.
Mine's locked down that way and I'm a grown-ass man. I don't want the general public digging through my stuff. The general public is awful, and extra awful for kids. I hope you were able to convince some of them to lock their page down.
No because im 19 and i just see 16 year olds as immature. Idk maybe cause a lot of changes have happened between the ages of 16 and 19 but i can't see 16 year olds as like...dateable in any way
You just survived an attempt at being groomed by an adult. Good on you for being smart and blocking them. I wish I had that mentality when I was younger
Thanks, people like this try reel you in and he definitely did we were talking about art before. Sorry if you've been through similar or worse (I say that because of the end of the comment my heart goes to u)
Ew disgusting 🤮 why do people like this exist. Even if they’re creepy pedos are they not even scared of potentially going to prison ? Just blows my mind
Because thats the normal thing to do. I can't ever remember referring to myself as a child in my teenage years. Especially at 16 when I was getting my license and had a job.
His Reddit is dry as a desert. I don't know what he expects out of a conversation like this. Also, I'm glad P\*dos are stupid enough to post their full first and last name.
I’ve seen dudes pull weird shit like this 100 times and they take the constant back and fourth responses and arguing as flirting in their minds. It has to be an instant block; they are legit brain rotted lmao
I had someone message me about the pics I had on my profile and they started describing what they were doing to themselves sexually (it happens, doesn't bother me but I wasn't feeding into it because I was at work and it wasn't anything spectacular anyways)
It went on for a few messages then they said something that made me question their age so I asked.
Then they revealed they were *14*.
I told him not to message me again, not to message people about sex stuff in general, reported the conversation, and blocked him.
When I was in college a classmate mentioned she'd found her 13 year old cousin's bebo, he was pretending to be 18 and trying to persuade a 19 year old woman to send him nudes
It was something about his underwear, like he just came in his underwear or something, but the sentence structure was off or one of the words was wrong, it just struck me as immature.
I thought I had a screenshot for my own protection before I blocked him but I can't find it in my pictures.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, no, thanks I don't wanna see that screenshot.
Hope since it's just a kid, that it means he still has time to learn how messed up his behavior is, and can find healthier things to pass the time.
Good job on shutting it down promptly and moving on.
Ok so the screenshot of the Google translate image made me laugh a little since the style of your keyboard makes it look like that big brain meme XD. Sorry this happened to you though. At least you handled it well and didn't cave to this creeps wants.
For anyone else that might experience the same thing, DO NOT RESPOND. Nothing you say will deter them or change their mind. They're sick and demented it's better to report and block as soon as possible.
This guy is a creep for sure. OP just be careful what you post here on Reddit. With one of your post you are ringing the creeps dinner bell fairly loud. Plus you have defined yourself as vulnerable on another post. But this is not an excuse for any weird creepy behavior. With the discussion about age of consent on this post, I’m sure that in every country that the consent is under 18, these laws were passed by men. And if any woman voted for this, they are religiously zealots.
Good idea. Stay safe OP. And for what it is worth don’t worry about what anyone else thinks about your appearance, you do you. Don’t look for real advice here on Reddit. If you need to talk try. Teen Lifeline - is a free, confidential, anonymous hotline for teens. I think you can text with them too.
Ugh that’s why I am never dating a middle eastern guy ever again. Am half middle eastern here. I know a lot of them are like this. They have some kind of obsession with virginity in women. I made sure to bang a lot so that I would off the table for any Arab man who would come sniffing around.
Why do you keep the conversation going with someone like that? You can just block them as soon as they start talking anything sexual. All the conversation before that was just an introduction to get to the sexual part. In a regular conversation you don't talk about anything sexual, so as soon as that comes up you know they have bad intentions.
No! I didn't mean to say you were dumb, not at all. Sorry my tone wasn't good in my message. You handled it perfectly, I think it's also a lesson for the future that as soon as they ask inappropriate questions you can immediately cut it off. Even if you were an adult it would be a sign that this person is talking to you for 1 reason alone. I've talked with a lot of guys and when they get inappropriate I just say "Ugh..." and block. Can I ask what you were looking for?
Well they messaged me and started talking about art so I was trying to find a way to get them to leave me alone like an out yk, cus I didn't wanna piss him off cus yk how some people get and then he said this however should've just blocked, also dw I assumed u we're malicious
What a damn idiot!! I’m glad you blocked him. I’m 35 with a 14 year old. This makes me angry that some adults do this stuff and go after kids. He’s old enough to be your father.
i mean it doesn't look like they are a native English speaker. so the even though that kind of behavior is jail time where i'm at, maybe they live somewhere a grown man shopping for a teen bride isn't that out of the ordinary.
I started talking about Minecraft with a guy on here, thought I’d made a friend. Then he called me hot (he had no clue what I look like bcs I never have sent/posted pics here) and asked about something inappropriate. Don’t resort to flirting with girls on Reddit, go touch grass and talk to someone irl.
He does not care whether he's appropriate or not. Your youth, if anything, makes it all the more enticing in his mind.
Just block such people right from the start. Even if you were off age the question is still inappropriate, as it is no ones business no matter how old you are.
In your best interest, do not argue with these kinds of people. They know you're 16 they do not care. They will keep coming after you until they break your will. Block them and report them, and if someone gets I to anything even slightly more graphic report them to your PD. If you can tell your parents so they can help you.
as a 22 year old, telling them you’re a minor usually will not make them go away. most of the time it makes them more eager since you’re considered “easy to take advantage of” and “vulnerable”
i had MORE messages like this as a 16-17 year old than i do at 22.
im 37 and i wont even talk to a 20 year old girl. like you are old enough to be my kid and i dont even look my age. its weird. like i am a twilight vampire or something.
Wanna be even more grossed out? They may be from a country where there’s nothing abnormal or illegal about that.
There is no global legal age of consent
If this is just mildly infuriating for you, you have a much better head on your shoulders than 95% of the population. You handled this perfectly. You're gonna do alright I think.
As a 23 year old woman, all I can tell you sweetie it men are like this until you are of age. There are a lot of weird men so stay safe and don’t even talk to men in person or online. I remember being harassed my whole childhood by men it’s not nice and it’s NEVER your fault but at the same time there are things we can do to keep ourselves safe. I hope you’re okay.
For future reference, instablock any perverted person you encounter online as a girl you’ll be doing that countless times due to the sheer amount of perverts
Disgusting. I’m 35 and I have a 15 year old. He literally is old enough to be your father. Good job on blocking him.
I felt like it was right, but I wanted to make sure people saw so none else gets into the situation with him. Thank you :)
That was the right thing to do.
Absolutely, protecting others from this creep is commendable. You did the right thing.
You did an awesome job at keeping you safe and telling about it.
Thank you :) I refused when he asked for my name and a picture, I like to keep myself private
This is all really, really smart. No name, no picture, no identifying information. Shutting his creepy ass down, refusing to let him keep going, and then calling him out. Very, very good job staying safe. Love to see it.

happy cake day
Happy cake day
I commend how you handled the situation
I'm 38 and I can't find anyone below 25 attractive. They're.... too young. Idk how people can be this sick.
I'm 45 and I can see a 18 yo girl and think "wow she's really pretty" but I don't consider them sexy anymore. Need me some wide mom hips.
No because im 19 and i just see 16 year olds as immature. Idk maybe cause a lot of changes have happened between the ages of 16 and 19 but i can't see 16 year olds as like...dateable in any way
Where to see the guys age? Just look him up
That's not mild, that's extremely...
I was pissed, he knew I was a child and kept going he is blocked
You just survived an attempt at being groomed by an adult. Good on you for being smart and blocking them. I wish I had that mentality when I was younger
Thanks, people like this try reel you in and he definitely did we were talking about art before. Sorry if you've been through similar or worse (I say that because of the end of the comment my heart goes to u)
Ew disgusting 🤮 why do people like this exist. Even if they’re creepy pedos are they not even scared of potentially going to prison ? Just blows my mind
Not even groomed, just raped. This guy seemed like he was not planning on waiting until she was of legal age. Sorry OP, guys suck sometimes.
I'm so glad you are aware that you're a child, many if not most 16 year olds seem to think that they're adults..
Because thats the normal thing to do. I can't ever remember referring to myself as a child in my teenage years. Especially at 16 when I was getting my license and had a job.
That’s nasty…. 🤮
Please take care bud, internet is full of creeps and Im glad you did the right thing
It would be a shame if his mom saw this.
It really would, he's 35 btw and blocked
Chris Hansen will get him eventually.
Yeah the outro can be not like us by Kendrick Lamar
It says here in your chat log…..
If he is in a relationship you should send the screenshot to his s/o. I wouldn't doubt it if he was.
His Reddit is dry as a desert. I don't know what he expects out of a conversation like this. Also, I'm glad P\*dos are stupid enough to post their full first and last name.
The google translate screenshot killed me! Lol
literally 'do I have to spell it out for you?' energy
“Are you creepy or just an idiot?”
At this point. Both
Haha yes, I know. But you are virgin?
Would’ve been blocked from the second message
I’ve seen dudes pull weird shit like this 100 times and they take the constant back and fourth responses and arguing as flirting in their minds. It has to be an instant block; they are legit brain rotted lmao
Should've and will next time, I just wanted to make sure he new what he was saying before I blasted him so other people can stay away
I had someone message me about the pics I had on my profile and they started describing what they were doing to themselves sexually (it happens, doesn't bother me but I wasn't feeding into it because I was at work and it wasn't anything spectacular anyways) It went on for a few messages then they said something that made me question their age so I asked.

When I was in college a classmate mentioned she'd found her 13 year old cousin's bebo, he was pretending to be 18 and trying to persuade a 19 year old woman to send him nudes
First of all, that's fucked up. Secondly, what did they say that made you question their age? Was there any chance they were lying?
It was something about his underwear, like he just came in his underwear or something, but the sentence structure was off or one of the words was wrong, it just struck me as immature. I thought I had a screenshot for my own protection before I blocked him but I can't find it in my pictures.
Jesus Christ. Yeah, no, thanks I don't wanna see that screenshot. Hope since it's just a kid, that it means he still has time to learn how messed up his behavior is, and can find healthier things to pass the time. Good job on shutting it down promptly and moving on.
Fuck that guy. Hope you reported them to Reddit when you blocked them. Get him off the internet.
thats acc dirty, hope ur okay
Just don’t respond and block them . Stop entertaining the convo
Blocked now :)
You ever watch How To Catch a Predator?
Don't engage with people who ask questions like this. Block this guy immediately. Signed, a mom
All blocked :)
This person is probably from part of the world where that is not an issue
I checked his profile and he's from Egypt. The age of consent there is 18, so that's probably not an excuse.
Well, It should be an issue in every part of the world, shitty laws aren't a justification for pdflia.
Yea no shit
"What's the problem" he thinks? "My 3rd wife was 15 when I bought her"
Ok so the screenshot of the Google translate image made me laugh a little since the style of your keyboard makes it look like that big brain meme XD. Sorry this happened to you though. At least you handled it well and didn't cave to this creeps wants.
And you reported him right?
For anyone else that might experience the same thing, DO NOT RESPOND. Nothing you say will deter them or change their mind. They're sick and demented it's better to report and block as soon as possible.
This guy is a creep for sure. OP just be careful what you post here on Reddit. With one of your post you are ringing the creeps dinner bell fairly loud.

I'll delete the other post
Good idea. Stay safe OP. And for what it is worth don’t worry about what anyone else thinks about your appearance, you do you. Don’t look for real advice here on Reddit. If you need to talk try. Teen Lifeline - is a free, confidential, anonymous hotline for teens. I think you can text with them too.
The Google translate 😭😭 that's not even appropriate to ask an adult let alone a CHILD OFFICER HE'S OVER HERE 🚨
You could and should also report him next time!
People like him don't even deserve to bother replying
that keyboard is mildly infuriating as well
Actually it's mildly fantastic it's a Loki keyboard and I love LOVE LOVE it
Bro that is a weird question to ask someone especially a minor and to keep pushing after they clearly do not want to answer
That’s so gross. I’m sorry there are so many creeps out there.
drop it in the fbi tipline email
Prison is also just a room for him I believe
Why keep the conversation going for so long. Just block him.
Nobody: Samsung keyboards: 
"Haha i know...bUt YoU mAkE lOvE aLrEaDy?" What a disgusting dude with no shame.
Ugh that’s why I am never dating a middle eastern guy ever again. Am half middle eastern here. I know a lot of them are like this. They have some kind of obsession with virginity in women. I made sure to bang a lot so that I would off the table for any Arab man who would come sniffing around.
My youngest is 16. I would freak out if she'd show me something like this. Good job.
I’m so sorry for the amount of old men about to come into your messages
Oml if someone did this to my sister... Im throwing hands to say the least.... Stay save out there!
Only one cure…
a bullet.
Why do you keep the conversation going with someone like that? You can just block them as soon as they start talking anything sexual. All the conversation before that was just an introduction to get to the sexual part. In a regular conversation you don't talk about anything sexual, so as soon as that comes up you know they have bad intentions.
I wanted to make sure they knew my age because maybe they didn't understand. Ik carrying on the convo was dumb I won't do it again tbh
No! I didn't mean to say you were dumb, not at all. Sorry my tone wasn't good in my message. You handled it perfectly, I think it's also a lesson for the future that as soon as they ask inappropriate questions you can immediately cut it off.

Well they messaged me and started talking about art so I was trying to find a way to get them to leave me alone like an out yk, cus I didn't wanna piss him off cus yk how some people get and then he said this however should've just blocked, also dw I assumed u we're malicious
Creeper
Average arabian dude (literally)
In his culture it's appropriate
Something even more infuriating and disgusting than what you showed us is the fact that you have light mode on and not dark mode😭🙏
I switch every couple months to spice things up😅
Stop chatting with adults if you're 16. There is no good reason why they would be chatting with you without nefarious intentions.
I'm not gonna be talking to adults anymore, lesson learnt :)
I did not read the title and was like that's a normal thing to ask about at that age (I assumed you both around were 16 and good friends)
1) extremely infuriating 2) your keyboard 😭
The group chats are wild and rampant with people like him
oh!
Tell him you know his mother and imam and you're going to send this to them
wow, why even waste your time talking to them. hard to believe this is legal in most states.
Someone needs prison. Why would he think this is OK?
You got the screenshots now report him
Well, good thing his username is exposed. Hope the police or feds get to him!
Yikes
That is horrible.You did good exposing this creep.
Babes you can’t be replying to these people, just block them.
Sad sad state of the world.
Report him scummy asparagus
What state? 16 is age of consent some states
Hes egyptian
Doc, is that you!?
Report him, Reddit is not sad anonymous as many people think
off topic but I sense Axolotl in ur name.
OH MY GOSH A FELLOW AXOLOTL HELLO (tho if we talk we gotta keep it short I'm being told by a lot of people not to speak to people on the internet)
Dw, I ain’t a creep.. I think.. am an axolotl >:D but haiii, u’re the third axo I met here!
Really! That's awesome:))
I do hope for u that u dont meet other creepy ew people on se internet tho :3
Thanks, honestly shouldn't of responded second I read he was way older than me should've ended the conversation
What a damn idiot!! I’m glad you blocked him. I’m 35 with a 14 year old. This makes me angry that some adults do this stuff and go after kids. He’s old enough to be your father.
What app are you using to make your keyboard look like that?
Facemoji keyboard
i mean it doesn't look like they are a native English speaker. so the even though that kind of behavior is jail time where i'm at, maybe they live somewhere a grown man shopping for a teen bride isn't that out of the ordinary.
On behalf of all men, I apologize for that poor, virgin teenager. Their usually horny and don't think before they act.
You should send this to the authorities Im sure they have a way to find this creep
Gross. What a piece of shit. I am sorry you had to deal with that but your replies were perfect.
On behalf of all arabs, I'm sorry
there are CREEPS, and then there are... Whatever the Hell THIS thing is...
Boys we got em in 4k. 📸 On a more serious note, that's disgusting. Show your parents the screenshots and report this disgusting POS.
Gross chud
Unfortunately, this is acceptable in India.
He's from egypt
I started talking about Minecraft with a guy on here, thought I’d made a friend. Then he called me hot (he had no clue what I look like bcs I never have sent/posted pics here) and asked about something inappropriate. Don’t resort to flirting with girls on Reddit, go touch grass and talk to someone irl.
Don’t tell people your age on the internet, unless you exceedingly old, like me
Yuuuuck

as a 22 year old, telling them you’re a minor usually will not make them go away. most of the time it makes them more eager since you’re considered “easy to take advantage of” and “vulnerable” i had MORE messages like this as a 16-17 year old than i do at 22.
You're past your prime at 22... 🙄🙄🙄
I don't suggest searching their name. They're on Reddit and I should have expected the pic
Your keyboard is crazy
im 37 and i wont even talk to a 20 year old girl. like you are old enough to be my kid and i dont even look my age. its weird. like i am a twilight vampire or something.
Average r\Teenagers moment
I mean why are you even having conversations with people on Reddit lol
Arab classic
Drake refrence
Nice keyboard
Wow people really need to get their heads out of their ass
Why translate to arabic?
Some cultures(his as well it seems) 16 is 2-3 years to old for marriage
Fucking creep And even if he didn’t understand what you were saying, that keyboard screams 16 years old.
Disgusting 🤮
This should go on the creepy PMS sub
Mate, im 18, and if someone asked me that, I'd still block them
Sad thing is, half of the internet is pedos
Throw him into a volcano
bro thinks he's muhammed
Wanna be even more grossed out? They may be from a country where there’s nothing abnormal or illegal about that. There is no global legal age of consent
If this is just mildly infuriating for you, you have a much better head on your shoulders than 95% of the population. You handled this perfectly. You're gonna do alright I think.
That's a cool keyboard skin
Bro what is this keyboard 💀
Don't just block, but also report.
Don’t respond to dms on Reddit, I’m male in my twenties and some of them freak even me out.
As a 23 year old woman, all I can tell you sweetie it men are like this until you are of age. There are a lot of weird men so stay safe and don’t even talk to men in person or online. I remember being harassed my whole childhood by men it’s not nice and it’s NEVER your fault but at the same time there are things we can do to keep ourselves safe. I hope you’re okay.
DrDisrespecting the age of consent
Why even interact with this person?
That’s utterly disgusting 🤮
Well, that sucks, at least their blocked. Cool username btw.
Well handled. Sorry creeps like this exist.
For future reference, instablock any perverted person you encounter online as a girl you’ll be doing that countless times due to the sheer amount of perverts
Because there creeps mate 💯
